Lightning
From BIONICLEsector01
- "There, it stood locked into place, a prisoner of its own electrical forces, which swirled in the air around it and formed a constant shimmer of concentrated lightning."

Species Wielders
Matoran Universe
In the Matoran Universe, Lightning is often represented with the colors blue and white.
- Matoran of Lightning represent the Element of Lightning. They contain a minuscule amount of Elemental Lightning Energy, to the extent that they have great resistance to electric shocks. All Matoran, Toa, and Turaga of Lightning are female.
- Toa of Lightning have the Elemental Power of Lightning, allowing them to create, control, and absorb lightning. Their only real limitation is that when they run out of Elemental Lightning Energy, they must wait for it to recharge.
- A Turaga of Lightning would hypothetically have small traces of Elemental Lightning Energy.
- Tahnok-Kal had a wide range of Lightning powers.
Other
- Avohkah were sentient beings made of lightning.
Examples
- Creating electricity
- Creating a defensive shield of electricity
- Shocking/paralyzing an opponent with electricity
- Controlling electricity
- Absorbing electricity
- Unleashing a Lightning Nova Blast (Toa exclusive)

Combinations
Beings other than Toa and the Krahka cannot combine powers of any sort to create a Protodermis cage. As long as each wields a different element, providing that Light and Shadow are not mixed at the same time, any six Toa can create a Protodermis cage.

Trivia
- Although Brutaka's Rotating Blades, the Exo-Toa's Electro-Rockets, Hakann's Lava Launcher, the Mahri Nui Matoran's Electro-Blades, Hewkii's Electrified Chains and Suukorak's Rhotuka all emit electricity, they don't have Elemental Powers.
- Ehlek, Axonn, Rahkshi and Kraata of Chain Lightning, the Hordika Dragons, the Kraahu, a Red Serpent, Lightning Bugs, and one of the First Rahi all have non-elemental lightning powers.
- The Toa Inika had non-elemental lightning intertwined with their regular elemental powers. They lacked the ability to separate this lightning, and were forced to use it in conjunction with their regular powers.
- Increased resistance to electrical shocks also comes with this Element.
